Chapter 01: Lived- Stream to find the Side Chick

After finishing my studies abroad, I returned home to attend my coming-of-age ceremony at school. My father called to inform me that he planned to get married again now that I was a grown-up adult. My mother had passed away years ago, and my only wish was for my father to be happy. To ensure that we both can witness our significant moment, he had scheduled the wedding at my school playground.

As soon as I landed, I began to dress meticulously. This was a very important day for both my father and me. I wore a special gown tailored for me by my father and donned a small diamond tiara, feeling utterly blissful.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside the makeup room. “Oh my God, there's a woman outside about to live stream a confrontation with a mistress!” “A mistress? At our school?” “Let's go have a look!”

Curious, I opened the Instagram live stream. Indeed, the top live stream showed a bride in her wedding dress crying in front of the camera, attracting millions of views. This woman was my stepmother my father had shown me in photos. I had never met her before, but my father described her as a gentle and considerate woman. I quickly clicked to watch.

“Thank you, thank you for your support,” she sobbed. “I never imagined today’s high schoolers could be so unruly, not only seducing my husband but even dictating my wedding venue based on her mood!” “She set her coming-of-age ceremony on the same day as my wedding, just to flaunt her youth, right?” cried she, looking aggrieved.

Many married women posted comments, angrily denouncing the mistress. Clearly, there was some misunderstanding. I hurriedly typed comments to explain, but it was immediately lost in a series of new comments.“Today is my wedding day, but she sent me intimate photos with my husband, claiming my husband loves her! She called me old and ugly and said my husband was reluctantly marrying me. I was just too upset and retorted, but then she...” The bride paused, her shoulders shaking, before continuing, she threatened to cancel my wedding, making me the laughing stock in public!”

The audience, upon hearing this, was too shocked to leave comments. After a moment, they leave their remarks filled with hostility. “Today's young girls really degrade themselves! Especially some high schoolers!” “How can such a person graduate? The school should know that and she must be expeled.” “My sister is at this university, and I've heard the students here live a dissolute life Especially those international students, using their family's wealth for a debauched life!" “Don't be scared, host, we're here to support you in the live stream! Go teach her a lesson today!”

Watching my stepmother become increasingly agitated, I hurriedly called my father. “Dad, how could you cheat? Eartha Gill is live streaming searching for the mistress! What are you going to do?” My father immediately denied it: “Eleanore, are you mad? That's outrageous, how could I possibly cheat? I'm on an inspection in the suburbs right now, I'll be right back, you try to clear things up.” I quickly hung up and prepared to go find my stepmother.

Just as I reached the door, a massive force smashed it open. I fell to the ground. Several men in bodyguard uniforms immediately approached and pinned me down. My knee slammed into the ground, causing me to grimace in pain. Wide-eyed and terrified, I stared at the woman—my stepmother, Eartha Gill, in the wedding dress standing in front of me. She thrust her phone camera in my face and pinched my chin. “Look clearly, everyone, this is the girl who seduced my husband! Look at her, wear such a heavy makeup, look like a bitch” “What kind of parents could raise such a slut! Today, I'll teach you how to behave instead of your parents!”
